?The Long Finger?, by Wicklow-based musician Deirdre Starr brings bold and innovative ideas to the world of Irish music. Mesmerising and evocative, the sublime voice and piano blend delicately with the subtle additions of cello, double bass and flute. Produced by Trevor Hutchinson, ?The Long Finger? weaves the familiar and not so familiar songs together ? from the unaccompanied ?less is more? Barbara Allen to the unique piano arrangement of ?I wish I was in England?. There is a sense of space in the songs, a touch of classical in the arrangements and a timeless emotion in the voice. Not to be missed.
